This hat is real cute. I'll have to make a couple for my girls. They love hats. Thanks for sharing your patterns.
hello. i fell in love with this hat and have made two already. thank you for the amazing tutorials.
i was wondering if you had a pattern for something like this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FIH0ntfwzCk] because she is going way too fast for me and my english isn't THAT good, haha. i thought i could pause it and write down the instructions but i'm still a little bit confused.
thank you.
Hi I am using a 4 ply yarn but the yarn is Simply Soft Eco. It is very soft and I am concerned that the yarn is alittle soft and the brim may be saggy. what do you think?
ash,
You can try it and see what happens. Maybe use a smaller brim? The softer the yarn, the chances are greater of the brim being saggy.
loved this hats look at it all time. Its really a great looking hat for winter and keep the wind or sun away. See you on youtube loving every Video. Its like have your own instructor on how to Crochet. Im a fan thank you for being here teaching us.\Deeseba2
I found this hat pattern today and decided i would try it.Your instructions are so easy to follow for a not to experienced crocheter.I think i will be making a few of these for the daughter and granddaughters,and probably for friends once they see the cap.Thank you again for many hours of relaxing enjoyment.
I appreciate the comments, thank you.
do you know what size hat this is? i am new at crocheting and I would like to make a 3 to 6 month baby one.
Tami,
This is for a 21"-23" head. You can stop several rounds earlier when you are first making it to make a child size cap. I am including the playlist for baby items that I have posted on YouTube. There will be a link on each video to the written instructions.
